Cooper's hawk

Across the street, right now.



  


My resident Cooper's hawk is spending some time on a treetop. The way she is preening her feathers reminds me of the way my cat cleans herself after each meal. Maybe the hawk too just had breakfast.




The tail bands are easy to see.

    1. Jackie, did you see my previous post about a mystery tree? I'd like to hear your take on it!
